Merzbow Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 PC games are rarely any cheaper now, at release most are the same price as the console counterparts and it's only when the sales roll in that they get a bigger decrease in price.

Mr_Danger Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Games, even at £60 aren't expensive. They're like the least inflated thing in the last 25 years. Obviously it's comparative to what you as an individual can afford but for a potential 50 hours plus of entertainment on a AAA game you get your money's worth, as long as you do your homework and know your tastes.

You might not get new releases, but it's still a decent service. And if you miss a bill or two and have to cancel, then the DLs are all you have assuming they can be played offline. Yes, that's a semi-luddite attitude, but it's true. Physicals still have some life in them. (PS Now is £108 a year btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Red Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 If you only buy a month at a time it's £108, it's £49.99 for a year's subscription - even at that you can find it cheaper online, CD Keys have a year's subscription for £39.69.

Stylin_and_Profilin Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Another, elbeit minor issue, is loss of licensing rights mean digital copies disappear for good. Rory McIlroy PGA Tour and Amazing Spiderman 2 spring to mind (physical copies go for crazy money now, at least they used to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for the heads up with CD Keys. Just purchased a year's subscription. That's just over £3 a month for a ton of games. Absolute bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Yeah i always check cdkeys, had some great deals on PS Plus too. Sometimes they just straight up sell the wallet top ups at a discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Gamivo is another cheap arse place for top ups although they seem a littler dodgier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted January 29, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 Wasn't sure where best to ask this... I've been thinking of buying a cheap PS3, to catch up on a few games I missed but mostly as a means of getting Netflix/iPlayer in our secondary living room. My question is, are these apps still supported on PS3 and still likely to be supported in the long-run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey_Piste Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Short answer is no. Long answer, also no, but get an Amazon Firestick instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted January 29, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 29, 2020 Or a roku if you'd rather not have a significant proportion of the UI dedicated to selling you Amazon Prime rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted January 29, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 Yeah, in the past I've found Roku devices to be slow and a bit of a slog to navigate but I've banned myself from giving those Amazon cunts anymore of my money, so it looks like that will have to do.

Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted January 29, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 The Bioshock collection's one of the PS+ games for February, nice! I haven't played any of them since the original releases, and never got around to any of the (supposedly good) DLC for 2 and Infinite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
